To all whom it may concern.-

Be it known that I, DOMINIOK CORADINO, residing at Hoboken, Hudson county, State of New Jersey, have invented certain new and useful Improvements in Oil-Stoves, of which the following is a specification. 7

My invention relates to oil-stoves; and the invention is directed more particularly to a spreader for what is known as a bluefiame oil-stove.

The object of my invention is to provide an oil stove with a spreader which is simple in construction, cheap to manufacture, efficient in use, and which cannot by the action of the heat thereon become deranged or broken, and thereby destroy the utility of the stove as a whole.

To these ends my invention consists in the construction and novel arrangement of parts in an oil-stove, as will be hereinafter described and claimed.

Heretofore in the construction of oil-stoves it has been customary to construct the spreader and its cooperating parts of several pieces of sheet metal, which were stamped out and soldered together, and much difflculty has been experienced by reason of the fact that it was difficult in the first instance to solder the parts together in such a manner that an exact and reliable adjustment or correlation of the parts could be secured and maintained. Where the proper adjustment or correlation of the parts is not secured, the flame will be onesided and the stove rendered imperfect and inefiective. Furthermore, the solder uniting the parts is liable to be melted by the action of the heat upon the spreader, and the stove will then be rendered ineffective and useless. By my invention I overcome these and other defects found in oil-stoves heretofore constructed.

Upon reference to the accompanying drawings, which illustrate an oil-stove embodying two forms of my invention, Figure l is a transverse view, partly in section, of a sufficient number of parts of an oil-stove to illustrate my invention. Fig. 2 is an enlarged detail central vertical section of the burner, the said section being taken on the line 2 2 of Fig. 3. Fig. 3 is a transverse sectional view of the same, taken on the line 3 3 of Fig. 2. Fig. 4:

is a detail side view, withparts in section, of

a modified form of spreader embodying my invention. Fig. 5 is a central vertical section of the same, the view being taken on the line 5 5 5 5 of Fig. 6. Fig. 6 is a transverse sectional view of the same, the section being taken on the line 6 6 of Fig.4.

Reference being had to Fig. 1 of the drawings, A indicates the framing of the stove, upon which is supported a suitable reservoir 0., which communicates with the wick-tube B by a pipe I) or otherwise. Above the wicktube B is shown a suitably-supported drum 0, above which is the top of the stove D, which has suitable openings therein through which the heat may pass through the drum 0.

So much of the construction as has been described constitutes no essential feature of my invention, and it will be' understood that the features constituting my invention may be applied to stoves of radically different characters from that shown.

Supported upon the wick-tube B, I have shown a wick-raiser c, which may be of any desired construction. The wick-tube (or whatIhave designated as a wick-tube B) is preferably made in two sections 1 2 (see Fig.

2,) which sections are detachably united by suitable means,such asascrew-thread connec- 8o tion d, so that the upper section 1 may be removed to give access to a considerable portion of the wick without removing the spreader or the wick, as will hereinafter more clearly appear. Within what I have termed the wickt'ubeB is contained what I term a drafttube E, which is open at the lower end to the outer air, as indicated in Fig. l of the drawings. This draft-tube E is provided at the upper portion thereof with a suitable spreadersupport, which in the present instance consists of a circumferential flange e. The supporting-arms f of the spreader F rest upon this circumferential flange e and maintain the spreader in the proper positionwith relation 5 to the upper end of the draft and wick tubes.

One form of spreader embodying myin'vention is represented inFigs. 2 and 3'o fthe drawings, from which it will be seen-thata central hollow spindle g is provided with the mo radiating supporting and deflecting arms f, which'are formed integral therewith. These arms are recessed at the edges thereof,as in near its lower end, as indicated at Z, and is dicated at it, so as to form aplurality of abutopen at its upper end, as indicated at m, for ments 'i,-which are adapted to bear against the free passage of air therethrough.
